[Joel Folkerts]

Unfortunately, using Word 2007 with the docx format strips EXIF data
from embedded pictures. Please note that you can still recover EXIF
data from legacy Word formats. Please see this post for additional
information: http://sansforensics.wordpress.com/2009/04/13/application-metadata-of-nested-documents/
